steal 100 gangster cars, which is a bit of a challenge. that shouldnt be too hard. since i beat the game, i wait for the hit squads to come get me, kill them and then get in and out of their cars fast lol. I'm hoping it works.

im doing that same thing too and it seems like i have gotten 100 but nothing yet!

ive tried to body thing in the water but the body always floats!

7 bosses per territory (6 generals and one big guy). You can watch your progress pressing start while in the game and then look for the gang files in the Agency menu. I'd recommend finishing all the bosses before going to other zones. :)

Thanks, I found another boss near the top of the first island, (lighthouse) and defeated him.

I haven't been able to get the shot putter one either. I go to one of the tallest towers in Shai Gen, grab a cinder block and aim upwards and throw. Still, nothing.

Throw something from any building into the ocean. If it doesn't work the first time, go somewhere else and try it. I threw something about 75 feet and got the achievement (after the body drifted for a while).

Got it, thanks. I must have thrown the body far enough cause almost instantly after it hit the water, I got the achievement.

For the Repo Man achievement, which is to commandeer 100 gang controlled vehicles, I suggest you do what I did.

Run around to where gangs are but make sure you don't have an icon in the top right indicating they are after you. Just run up to a car and press Y and you'll throw them out. Just do this for a little while and you'll get the achievement. Just make sure the gang isn't coming after you and they won't even get out of the car.

I have 40 of 43 achievements. Just a few more hidden orbs, 4 more agility orbs and a few more stunt rings and I'm done. :)

I got the game on Tuesday, didn't play it on Wednesday and beat it Thursday - well technically early Friday morning, so it is a short game. That being said I typically don't beat very many games, so that does at least say that this game is pretty fun. I still want to try a lot of these achievements out, too, so that really adds to the replay value. Since I'm only renting this title from GameFly I haven't committed to a full purchase of this game, but I have to say it's a solid, enjoyable title.

Hopefully if finances go as expected I'll keep it and it'll eventually turn into a Halo 3 beta after I'm tired of the game.

Finally got four stars on everything earlier today. Looking back on things I really wish I focused on maxing everything out with the Los Muertos. Instead I went straight for the kill and wiped Los Muertos and the Volk out with only my Agility and Driving at 4 stars, which made maxing out my firearms and explosives that much harder since I then had to do it with the Shai Ghen (sp?).

I did my abilities in this order.

Driving

Strength

Agility

Explosives

Firearms.

As I said, looking back on things, I almost wish I did it in reverse, as although it is cool having 4 stars with driving, it is the least essential aspect of the entire game itself.

Now that I am maxed out, and have two Boss' left in Shai Ghen, which means I should be done with the story aspect easily by the end of the weekend, probably more like tomorrow.

I have also only done 3 Rooftop Races and just 1 car Race, so I have all of them to do, although honestly I cannot help but think I never will do them all, mainly because when I tried them really quick a few days ago the roof top races at the Agency were just insanely difficult. I just do not have that kind of patience.

I also still have a good amount of Achievements to get.

The only question I have is does the game stutter and slow down to a crawl for anyone else after the loading screen when you need to choose an area then the spawn point? It always takes forever for me to choose "Clean Up The City."

Whenever I am at the screen, I just hear this disk skipping and skipping and it is way louder than any other game in the drive. When it really acts up it takes up to 1-2 seconds for the screen to react to whatever direction I move the controller to, and if I recall correctly all you can do in that particular screen is move left, right, and up or down. Every-time that screen literally just runs extremely poor.

Besides that, I have had a few issues with movies running poorly, and sound skipping here and there. In one instance I had the sound completely disappear and never return until I fully restarted the game.

then the only other issue I had was during a CoOp with my boy, i had to eat dinner so I just paused it on top of a building while he played, and when I came back all of our Boss' were completely screwed on the map. They were saying undiscovered for Boss' we had beat, and other Boss' we did not beat when we went to their area, no one was there at all.

Seriously though I can live with those few bugs though since the game is that good overall.

I truly believe this is among the Top 5 games to own for the 360, if not in the Top 3. I really have enjoyed it that much.

I've had similiar problems too. The clean up the city screen is very slow and yesterday i went to kill the last riot and there were no enemies so I had to run away from the place and go back. I think I actually had to respawn. I was also getting an undiscovered boss but that was because I was getting no intel for some reason. I also lag in coop, whether I'm hosting or not.

Yup, I get that too.

I had that exact problem when selecting the spawn point. I actually thought my 360 had frozen. It took about 15 seconds for it to load (thank god it did!)

Also my sound skips now and then or disappears for a few seconds, I thought it might have been my setup originally. I tested a different set and still had the problem though (N).

Hope they fix these small problems :yes:

Okay cool. Thanks for the responses. (Y) I was starting to wondering if my 360 was going on it's way out since it is a launch model, but it seems that a lot of people are having that issue with the slow down on that one screen in particular.

I just noticed some bugs but still good game overall like DL said...

Off topic: DL..I wonder what other games is in your top 5 for 360? I'm curious :)

I've gotten that "Assist the other agent" only once before. I didn't have my headset in though so I have no clue if anyone was talking. I assumed I was getting it because I had a friend that had left after we were playing co-op together and the system jsut hadn't reset or something. I haven't gotten it since then.
